Does anyone know the difference between the rare OB-5 and the common OB-3? I have a few Tacoma guitars and know about as much about their history and products as anyone. Today I received an Olympia OB-5 CE6/SB. I've only found two other OB-5's on the web and they are also sunbursts. I'm very...

Came across this and couldn't find that it had been previously posted. Normally I'm against mindless hatred but in this case I see their point.

I've noted the many threads in which the B string in particular and low notes in general are described as muddy and solutions are sought. I've wondered about disagreements over the same model bass and in general have assumed that getting a tight sound meant hearing less of the fundamental and...

While waiting for another speaker to do my TL606 project I came across some Bag End speakers from a university acoustic lab: E-15 and E-15X without a xover so I'm going to do the Bag End cabs first. Other threads explained general cabinet construction with 1/2" plywood and cross bracing. The...

Since Cort only made the Ocean basses for Guitar Center for less than two years I figured I'd join the Cort Club. However, I was ridden out on a rail by several members who insisted the the Ocean TB70 was completely different from the Cort Artisan A4 because the Artisan body had hand sanded...

Noob here, life-long drummer, long time rhythm guitarist with an opportunity to play bass. I'm also a stereophile and old, so I have the stubborn determination that you need a BIG cabinet for proper lows. I think of the bass reproduction in my old Bozak Concerto speakers. I've also noticed...

I'm retired now, played mostly amateur drums and rhythm guitar for three decades off and on. Once about twenty years ago I filled in on bass and liked it. Now my neighbor wants to start a blues band and I told him I'd play bass. So I've been doing a lot of reading and working on guitar while...
